Chamber Music Featuring Jewish Composers with Yuriy Bekker and Friends (75 min)
Experience an unforgettable evening of intimate chamber music by prominent Jewish
composers at the magnificent KKBE synagogue, featuring Charleston's own critically acclaimed
violinist, Yuriy Bekker. This year's event will be even more special as Yuriy will be joined by
renowned violinist/violist Michael Klotz, award-winning cellist Julian Schwarz, and pianist
Marika Bournaki. The program will include Mendelssohn's Piano Quartet, Krein's Elegy, and
selections from Korngold's Suite. Additionally, the program will feature works by two
contemporary composers: Jonathan Katz's ethereal Berceuse and Paul Schonfield's playful and
lively Cafe Music. Join us for a diverse and entertaining evening of music, rich with history and
artistry, sure to captivate your senses.
